Limelight added new PoPs in Brazil, Canada, France, India, Italy, Spain
and the U.S., and upgraded more than 20 locations worldwide to address
market demand for CDN services and capabilities. The investment supports
Limelight’s long-term focus on expanding in key countries across the
globe.

In addition to the global network expansion, proprietary software and
network upgrades reduced the carbon footprint by nearly 1,600 metric
tons of carbon dioxide and reduced power costs by 10 percent this year
alone.

“Continued investment in our network and software is paying off,
resulting in broader coverage, greater capacity, increased network
performance, and a superior quality of experience for our customers,”
said Dan Carney, Senior Vice President of Operations at Limelight
Networks. “Our unique assets include scale, footprint, reliability,
security, and connectivity, which make Limelight one of the highest
performing options for delivering online content and addressing
edge-computing requirements.”

Limelight is continuously increasing its network capacity to support the
growth of online traffic. Limelight caches digital content across 80+
PoPs around the world. Its dense architecture increases cache hit ratios
and serves content to users from the fastest location rather than going
back to the content origin server.
